This volume contains two significant historical works by Sallust: "Conspiracy of Catiline" and "The Jugurthine War." Translated by John Selby Watson and introduced by Edward Brooks, these texts offer invaluable insights into the political and military events of ancient Rome.

"The Jugurthine War" recounts Rome's conflict with Jugurtha, the king of Numidia, in the late 2nd century B.C. Sallust explores the corruption and internal strife within the Roman state that prolonged the war, as well as the military strategies and personalities that shaped its outcome.
